Purchased a *************** bean roaster on Amazon. Two months exactly after purchase the device failed completely. Contacted the seller through Amazon, was offered a full refund, then the seller ignored me. Contacted Amazon and was told via chat that due to being a long time Prime member they would honor a one time full refund. Amazon instructed me they did not want the item returned. Device has since been thrown away and now Amazon is not honoring the refund offer without me paying a restocking fee or sending item back. I don't have it because Amazon told me they didn't want it! Now I can't get them to resolve the issue as they continuously hang up the phone during customer service calls. Merchants and ********************** should not be allowed to take advantage of consumers in this way. I would have gladly returned the item when I had it if they had just told me it needed to be returned. I have requested a copy of all my chats with Amazon regarding this matter.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Amazon instructed me they did not want the item returned. There is no device to return back, it has been thrown away.
Now they are telling me to return the device??
See attachment for the directions they previously provided me.

I have purchased a dog food on Amazon.com. However when I received the order the box is damaged and the dog foods everywhere in the box. I requested a return but customer support told me I have to send them the photo of damaged product through email. I sent them the photos of damaged product but they said the photos I took didnt show the details. And now they require me to submit a picture of the item that is damaged along with a piece of paper (handwritten or typed) containing the Amazon account holder's name and a date. Thats ridiculous. I just want to return a damaged product why is that so hard. Please send me a return label so I can drop it off at *** store. I dont want keep the damaged box and product at home.

I bought a roborock s7max v in December 2022 from Amazon. After about 10 months it had some problems and Amazon told me to contact the manufacturer. After lots of back and forth emails with roborock customer service they finally asked my vacuum back for a repair. They told me they repaired it and sent me a different, used, refurbished machine and blocked my emails. I opened a new email account and told them the vacuum they sent me is not working. They blocked me again. They blocked all my emails , even my phone number. I cannot call their customer service number. There is no way to reach them. I explained the situation to Amazon a few times and they don't help. They do nothing about it. Why is Amazon selling products of a company that has a terrible customer service? ********************** agent gave me the email adress of roborock India(?)to contact and of course they did not reply my emails too. I need help from Amazon since it is their responsibility. They sold me the vacuum, I paid $675 and to this non working machine and nobody helps!I don't want to hear that the return window is expired because I need a solution !Business Response

Hello *****,
I'm ******* from Amazon.com. I'm writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I've provided the BBB with a copy of this message.I apologize for all the inconvenience you've had with the "roborock S7 MaxV Robot Vacuum and Sonic Mop, 5100Pa Suction."
On checking, I see the order was placed on November 24, 2022 and return expired on December 30, 2022, hence its too late for us to help you with the return. I understand that you've contacted manufacturer and they've sent you an item that isn't working and have blocked. In this case, as already informed, only the manufacturer can help.
However, we won't be able to provide any further information apart from this.
We appreciate your understanding with out limitations.

I am rejecting this response because:I understand the return period expired but does Amazon only sell stuff and does not care about the rest? Do you want me throw my $675 to trash? Why does Amazon sell products of a company that has terrible customer ********************? Where are the customer rights? I trusted ********************** when I was buying this. I thought they would help me if I need anything. I need a solution. Can Amazon open a case to Roborock and reach them? Or does Roborock block Amazon too?

Hello,I'm filing a formal complaint due to constant misinformation and runaround from Amazon.This is regarding order 111-2280820-4737842. I initially set up a return of the order with *** pickup. It took me forever to find a box to fit the order, its completely irregular shape and wouldn't fit in any box. I finally was able to find a box but i needed *** to pick it up. Due to the box issue, i was a few days outside of the return policy so i couldn't change the return method. I contacted amazon via chat on Dec 6 and asked if it was possible to change the return from *** pickup to *** dropoff. The chat rep said it was too complicated and that i didn't have to return the order and that i would receive a full refund of $119.99 back to the original form of payment in 3-5 business days (screenshot attached). A week later, on Dec 14, as i didn't receive a refund, i called amazon. I explained everything and the rep on the phone said she was consulting her supervisor. I was on the phone for AN HOUR when the rep finally returned saying that after speaking with her supervisor, they will issue a refund of $119.99 back to the original form of payment. I requested written proof of that and the rep sent me an email confirming this in writing (screenshot attached). Today is Dec 22 and i still haven't received my refund. I called Amazon and spoke with ****** who refused to provide his employee number or his location, and after being on the phone with him for over 30 minites he refused to honor what was promised to me twice in writing by Amazon employees and supervisor. I spent over 90 minites in total on the phone with amazon not to mention the time on the chat, it's been 2 weeks!! Its completely unacceptable, unprofessional, and disrespectful! I request that you process a refund of $119.99 as it was promised back tp the original form of payment as soon as possible. I want to have it resolved and for amazon to honor their own promises. Screenshots attached. Thanks in advance.Business Response

1. Son ***** and I moved to permanent residence in August 2023. We had difficulties for MONTHS having the driver(s) deliver to proper location. There are two dwelling on this property. Delivering to front door is not acceptable. When deliveries are made to front door 78-year-old landlord feels obligated to deliver to proper location. Amazon promised repeatedly this would happen again. ****** would leave at front door and put left at back door. When confronted in person about why he was delivering to front door driver stated, I aint got time for that when referring to proper delivery location. Amazon made promises for account credits and various things, few if any were kept. 2. Bought a laptop and it wont allow use of many programs like photoshop. Put in a return then had difficulty removing personal information on computer. Was an admin error as a I am admin. Reporter to Amazon and got conflicting information about sending back with my personal information. Had to send back anyway because no one responded as said via email. Then Amazon has harassed or falsely insinuated there are issues. #1, because of delay because of personal information issues never addressed, a second request to return was put in at request of Amazon employee. #2 card to purchase laptop was mother ***************************. She has no Amazon account after father died. She lived with us and used my account. Also my son uses my account and no one else. Talked to agent *** for 1.5 hours who assured me refund would come by 12/20 and there would be extra funds he alludes to in email. Upon checking in this other agents defamed him and his email saying not true and calling him a loser making situation for me much worse. 3. During this time my son asked me to help him return a ******* soundbar. After requesting return I noticed that QR code said customer pack and I called to see about having *** pack. I was harassed immediately by returns **** then told Id have to send in ID!Customer Answer

I ordered a large bag of dog food from Amazon. It was one of many dog food items Ive purchased through them recently because my dog has been suffering from food allergies and were trying to find something he can eat safely. Ive felt comfortable buying from Amazon up to this point because if there was an issue with a product, theyve always agreed to refund it. This time was different. They asked me to email a photo of my government ID. Next they asked for a picture of the dog food bag. Then they asked for a picture of the dog food bag with my name written on a paper next to it. THEN they asked for another picture with the date written on the paper, with the name, by the bag! After I sent them every last one of those things, they refused to refund me. No reason given. I was told to contact the manufacturer.Business Response

On Dec 10th I ordered 2 Ebikes from amazon at the cost of $228.98 each.Order # ***-4032565-9252251 $487.72 On Dec 10th I was told that the carrier picked up the package via Amazon website with estimated delivery date of Dec16th On Dec 16th I was told that the Items were running late and would be delivered by Dec 20th. On Dec 20th I contacted Amazon to find out where my christmas presents were. I was strongly advised to accept a refund many times. They said the items were defective, so I asked them to please ship the defective items to me so I could then return them for good ones. I then tried again and they then changed their story and told me that they were lost. I then pointed out that there were some in stock and asked them to please ship me those. They then finally told me what is the truth that there was a "price mistake" and that these would not be shipping at all. The unethical and I believe Illegal behavior of Amazon in this transaction caused me several weeks of time that I could have been looking for other gifts for my children. The lies that they told in order to coerce me into accepting a refund are all documented. When a price is advertised and money accepted for an item sold, I always thought the Item had to be provided. Going to the extent to lie about shipping the item (it was never provided to the shipper even though the website says it was) is completely unethical, and wasting two weeks of my time while knowing the item was not "running late" is completely unacceptable. These items are currently for sale on Amazon for a higher price. I request for resolution that Amazon should either send me the items I ordered that are currently available, or they can give me a full refund plus the difference in cost of the currently available items $370 total.Business Response

On Friday Dec 22 I was streaming on Amazon prime. The internet went out briefly and when it came back on, I could suddenly no longer stream. I keep receiving an error message from Amazon stating "Your device is connected to the Internet using a VPN or proxy service. Please disable it and try again." I DO NOT have a VPN. I've been watching prime for years with no issues then suddenly this happens. I called my internet provider and my internet connection is fine. I can stream from every other platform except amazon. I contacted an amazon rep who could not fix my issue then hung up on me when I asked for a manager. I want amazon to fix my account so streaming video works again. I repeat, I do NOT have a VPN or connect to the Internet via any proxy.Business Response

On December 17th, 2023, at approximately 3PM EST, I was attempting to purchase a high-value gift card for a close friend, using my Amazon Store Card. I knew that Amazon would say something along the lines of "fraudulent activity". Just to make sure it was me, I gave them documented information, like the last four digits of the said card number and a recent statement; address, confirming last four card digits, etc.I received an email receipt that the gift card was ordered (order number 112-0251677-7835467), but was immediately flagged after the fact.I expected usual business from Amazon, as I've been using their service for over a decade, but in the end, they unwillingly closed my account because "I was unable to provide enough documentation".Business Response

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
